C&K Metal Recycling will no longer buy vehicles hauled in without fluids drained prior to entering the facility. This means vehicles with gas tanks still attached will have a basketball sized hole in them or removed and cut in half. Transmissions and engines will have to be drained. This will be strictly enforced by C&K personnel. Radiators should be drained as well.
Exceptions will be running vehicles drove into our facility for recycling.
C&K Metal Recycling will now haul scrap vehicles from within a limited area around Moorefield and Petersburg. If you would like C&K to haul your scrap vehicle, you MUST have a title for the vehicle. The vehicle must have the gasoline drained and there can not be any trash in the vehicle. C&K will pay the published price for whole cars minus $50 an hour to pick up your vehicle. If you have questions or would like to schedule a pick up please call C&K Metal Recycling at 304-434-2485.
